Just bought this 2002 Passat Wagon GLX 4Motion. Has 102k on it. All of a sudden this whirring, humming sound started coming out of the top of the motor. My buddy said it might be the secondary air pump and to remove the relay to stop it for the time being. I got in to the ECU and found relay...
I thought the noise was a result of bad tires, I just got 4 new ones and the noise still exists. Its not to loud, but when I turn slightly or heavily to the right it becomes louder. The noise is coming from the left drivers front side. Also, brand new CV half shaft assembly on that side. I...
A couple months ago I took my B6 2.0T for tire rotation and wheel balance. It wasn't too long that my wife had told me the car started making some humming noise that was getting worse with speed increase. I took the car for a ride and it did sound like it was coming from tires. I just figured...
Hi,
Today I noticed that when I switch the engine off, there'll be a humming noise coming under the hood that lasts a couple of minutes. What's wrong with it? Last time I heard that noise was when the thermostat needed to be replaced this April (and that cost me over 2700 US dollars!). What...
This is my first post. I have searched this site but don't seem to find anyone who is having these problems simultaneously. Regarding my 2003 GLS wagon (B5.5): About 6 weeks ago the rear windshield washer fluid hose somehow became disconnected and sprayed probably 1/2 cup of fluid (before I...

Recently I've noticed that when I have the fan running (for heat) and accelerate (most noticeable accelerating from a stop) I hear a humming that gets louder based on my throttle applied. Any idea what this is from? How might i stop it from making the humming...its kind of irritating. Anyone...
I've have a 2000 V6 4motion wagon and since 2000 we would get an intermittent humming sound from the gas tank filler area whenever it was 90+ degrees outside and we've been driving for a while. It doesn't matter if the tank is full, 1/2 or near empty. It's really noticable when inside our...

My 2001 B5 (2WD 1.8L Turbo with Automatic Trans.) has almost 80K. About 3 months ago, the low humming sound started when stearing wheel is turned at lower speed. I checked the power stearing fluid level when the engine is not running and the level is within the recommended range. I noticed that...
I just took delivery of my new wagon. The second Passat I've owned. I hope I'll love this one as much as the first one! What's with the gaps at the bottoms of all the doors? My '03 Passat had a rubber seal at the door bottoms (kind of like a big rubber blade) that kept things nice and tidy...
Hello everyone,
I bought my 2000 passat couple of weeks ago. Last few mornings have been very cold in Maryland (in the 20s). My car is creating some sort of a humming sound when I turn the steering wheel. It only happens in the morning, while the car is still cold. If I drive in the afternoon...

Guys,
I've posted the same concern on VWVortex when CB5 was down last month. So far I have not received any good tips. I've got a humming (dronning) noise in my new 4 motion at low rpms, somewhere in the front. I can hear it especially well when the car is cruising to a stop at 20-30 mph, then...
